The “Clueless” actress, who has won fans and enemies for her conservative views, has joined Whoopi Goldberg and Barbara Walters as a guest presenter on the magazine show in the past and she is keen to become a permanent fixture now that fellow Republican Hasselbeck has quit.

The former “Survivor” contestant ended her decade on “The View” on Wednesday after announcing she would be joining Fox news show “Fox & Friends” later this year, and Dash, who was a guest on “Access Hollywood Live” as Hasselbeck’s big announcement went live, immediately revealed she would be interested in replacing her.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck says she feels fine after trying to hail a cab from a Manhattan sidewalk and getting hit by a bike instead. The pregnant co-host of ABC’s “The View” joked about the hit-and-run incident on Wednesday’s show, noting that whatever the speeding courier was carrying, it must have been delivered on time.

She told viewers that afterward, she sent a reassuring message from her phone to her husband, former NFL quarterback Tim Hasselbeck. Then she posted an update on the Twitter Web site to announce: “The belly is OK.” (AP)

Talk show host Elizabeth Hasselbeck is pregnant with her third child with her husband, football player Tim Hasselbeck.

“The View” co-host announced she was again expecting on the morning show today, admitting she was stunned by the news herself.

The 31-year-old was exhausted after months of reporting on the presidential election, and suspected a heavy workload was to blame for her fatigue.

She says, “I’m pregnant again! I’m due in August. … We were thoroughly happy with the surprise of it. I didn’t even know for two months. I was walking around — I thought I had — I kept saying, ‘Electionitis, electionitis.’

“I was tired, I was nauseous, I thought I was worn out from the whole procedure. No. I was knocked up and didn’t realize it.”

The couple has a 3-year-old daughter, Grace, and 14-month-old son, Taylor Thomas.

A representative for the hit daytime show “The View” has been forced to deny rumors of an off-set feud between co-hosts Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Joy Behar.

The relationship between the pair — famed for their heated on-air debates over their political views — has reportedly become so strained that they have been involved in screaming matches backstage.

According to the Chicago Sun-Times, the animosity between the pair “has gotten so ugly, they only speak on air or when a camera is anywhere in their vicinity.”

The rumors stem from the pair’s angry conversations about the forthcoming U.S. presidential elections. Hasselbeck is a staunch Republican and John McCain supporter, while Behar is backing Democratic candidate Barack Obama.

But a spokesperson for the popular ABC program refutes the claims, insisting rumors of a feud between the two hosts have been around since they started the show.

The representative tells Usmagazine.com, “These fabricated rumors about alleged dissension between Elisabeth and Joy are as untrue today as they were yesterday, a week ago and when the rumor(s) first started.”

The denial comes just days after fellow co-host Whoopi Goldberg revealed Hasselbeck receives death threats from angry anti-Republican viewers.

“The View” co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck has given birth to a baby boy.

The 30-year-old celebrated the birth of her son, Taylor Thomas, with her football player husband Tim on Friday morning at an Arizona hospital.

NFL quarterback Tim says, “We’re thrilled he arrived safely. Both mom and son are happy and healthy.”

The couple — who already have a 2-year-old daughter, Grace — moved to Arizona in October, after Tim, 29, signed a contract with the Arizona Cardinals. Elisabeth plans to return to the ABC morning talk show later next year.
